-The Fullness of God's Word ~
Isaiah 55:1-13

"...so is my word that goes out from my mouth; It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it."
--(Isaiah 55:11)

IN my college years I began to grow in my love and commitment to the Word of God. Our pastor would preach "hard and strong" from Scripture. My old Bible is filled with notes, outlines, and personal applications offered on any Sunday. I also loved to see the pastor's open Bible with his margin notes, circled words, arrows going from one verse to another, red and blue liners outlining God's truth.

But it doesn't really matter if your Bible is marked with ink or not; the words are what remain. We have an eternal God with His eternal Word as relevant today as in the days of old, and for all generations.

Just as the rain and the snow accomplish what is needed on earth, so God's Word accomplishes His spiritual purposes in our lives (see v. 10). Years come and go along with their ups and downs, but God's promises and presence never end. God's great redemption story coming through His Word into our lives needs to be told to those who follow in our footsteps.
It will not return empty!

God will open doors of opportunity for you to share His love in a spiritually hungry world. Go through them!
